Ryan Shotton

Seems him and Gestede both had overinflated opinions of their worth.

Maybe related to the stage of their careers, but both clearly just in it for themselves now. Not the characters you want in a team, we're well rid (obviously).
 
Decent enough squad player, can understand him not wanting to play on if carrying an injury and no suitable deal on the table. Am sure he will do ok. Bit the kind of player to pull up trees but didn’t mind having him in the squad either.
 
Good squad player is Ryan Shotton, but I remember NW saying he wanted more leaders. Ryan comes across to me as a nice guy, but not sure he is the leader type that NW wants.
 
And they are, of course, bottom of the league having conceded 31 goals in 13 games.
That’s hilarious.

And weird, that Melbourne Victory have built a little Boro-on-the-Yarra.

Callum McManaman’s dad once told my best mate that he’d signed for Boro (January window in PL I think, or the year after), it’s the only bit of insider football gossip I’ve ever had. True story.
 
I'll just point out that I made this post last season. It was very much an in-hindsight post, when we were struggling with injuries.
 
He’s only 32. He must surely be doing coaching badges at the same time because this move makes little sense for him, unless his body isn’t up to professional football any more.

Nothing about Ryan Shotton was up to professional football at Boro, let alone now.
He was a big useless donkey - an incredible waste of an awful lot of money.
Thanks Monk. And of course pulis played him, he was right up that no mark's street.

What a nasty toxic post Indeedido, are your piles playing up or something ?
Shotton did OK for us and always gave 100% on the pitch 👍

He was just an average defender. Not sure he deserves that much stick to be honest.
 
He was okay for us, and had the decency to sign an extension and try to help keep us up, even though injury curtailed it, seems like a home bird though.

He was in Stoke all the time when here, and he's now signed for a non-league side in Stoke.
